I've also been considering both products. But have been reading alot on Preditor having idle issues and surging exspecally on 06-07's. It doen't seem that they have a fix just yet that works 100%.
Dollar wise you can't beat Preditor $300 differance over Smarty.

 

The idle does shake a bit once in awhile but overall the motor is quieter than with the Smarty. The surge is a pretty minor deal that feels more like a torque converter clutch not engaging/disengaging smoothly

I didnt know tha predator was so cheap!

 

$485.00 CDN vs $845.00 CDN (Smarty) The Predator is cheaper alright!

 

predator is the best bang for your buck, and you get custom tunes for free, customer service is great from what i hear too

 

does anyone know if the predator/puck combo does boost fooling or do you need to buy the boost fooler sepratley?

 

ive seen the predator and the puck combo for 378$us so with our dollar as good as it is you can get the combo for less than 450$can.

 

hey shawn the predator puck combo doesnt do boost fooling,it may be an update as lots of people were complaining,thier trinity monitor with programmer sounds pretty wicked and im sure it will have boost fooling,they wont give a date on release though.

 

Have to buy it separate. This week the intermediate hiccup should be fixed.

 

I noticed my idle a "tiny" bit less smooth than stock today. Seems like every other time I throw it in park I feel it. So minor though almost not worth mentioning..

This is my first programmer, but I am REALLY liking the Predator so far. Call me crazy, but I think if I manually shift the truck the converter locks MUCH better than before. I was climbing a pretty curvy steep hill today in 2nd at about 1800rpm, and if I just moderately fed throttle it felt like I was going to rip asphault...

The power feels very smooth, shifts are great, and VERY little smoke..

 

In a week the family & I are taking the trailer on a trip from So Cal to just south of Oregon to see the Sequoia's. After that I am changing to a diff. tuner, I don't want to do any changes before a long trip from home. The Predator combo seems awesome for the price. Upon my return, the Superchips will hit e-bay and I will go Diablo.
